Thanks Michael for the feedback. I do have some book I have been reading and listening to podcasts taking notes. But Im more of a hands on learning type of person and thats why I was looking into doing the transition that way. There is definitely a lot to learn. Thanks again!

Hello everyone. My name is Carlos Sierra. Found this forum by listening to podcasts about Real Estate. I live in Garner,NC and Im looking for a change in my life. Currently I work on tugboat in the area of NYC, gone away from my family 2/3 of the year making decent money, but being gone, not enjoying life is getting to me slowly. I serve in the U.S. Coast Guard for 12 years and that how I end up in the tugboat industry. Now I'm seeking to get my Real Estate license but is impossible to get it in my current job due to the requirements in North Carolina of 5 weeks in classroom training (not allow online). My question is; Is it possible to land a job as an assistant for a Real Estate Investing company or broker without a license in the Raleigh, Durham or Garner area in North Carolina that will be willing to mentor me while I go to school and make some decent money? Or this option far from reality? I have been thinking about getting a job at Home Depot of something like that while I go to school and avoid touching my saving. (I might sound a lil desperate here). Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Have a great day.

Thank you for all the info.

It was working fine. Really good info. Thanks again. Btw. It says 6pm but that Pacific time. It when live at 8pm in the East coast where I'm at.

I have. But in North Carolina is a mandatory 75 hour in classroom course as far as I know. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks

Hello everyone. Is there any classes for the pre license 75hour course that are shorter than 6-6 weeks? With the type of job I have right now Im only 3 weeks home and I don't want to quit until i have my license in hand. I did research all over but I couldn't find anything shorter than 5 weeks. Thanks for the help!
